In addition to Shortyo’s major vocal guests, "King Of The Kounty" boasts an equally impressive production team. Drumma Boy, Oz and Da Decon, Basement Beats and more notable producer names collaborate with Shortyo in the creation of the upcoming "King Of The Kounty".

Shortyo’s eloquent and raw style is showcased throughout the album with all songs written by Shortyo himself.

"My life has influenced every song on "King Of The Kounty". I write what I see, experience and witness others going through. This process keeps my music real, relevant and personal," states Shortyo.

Shortyo launched his career in 1997, establishing Affiliated Records. Shortyo released his first official CD, "Living My Life" after signing a major distribution deal in 2002. As Shortyo’s career took off, so did the talent he signed under his label, Affiliated Records. Pleased, but not satisfied, Shortyo felt it was time to get back in the studio, leading to the eagerly anticipated release of "King Of The Kounty".
